Feng Shui through Pleasant Aroma

The Concepts of Feng shui were developed In China thousands of years ago. Where once people lived among mountains and rivers, we now have sky scrapers and roads, where once they looked out on rural fields and open country, we now have parks and suburban landscapes, yet the basic guidelines and principles behind Feng shui are the same as they are simple logic and common sense and they don’t change. A Chinese landscape, with Yang Sky, yin land, dragon mountains and a” white tiger” lake is said to be the most ideal and conducive formation for good energy.

The important aspect of feng shui is not just the décor, style and flow of chi (energy) but also the way the home smells. By checking the feng Shui of your home one can tell if everything is in harmony and make the changes if not to achieve balance.

Many homes and large stores do know very well the power of the sense of smell. No one can ignore the temptation of the aroma of freshly baked bread at the shopping mall or superstore however far or deep it is positioned within the store.

Animals excrete pheromones to attract their mates and to demarcate their movement and territory.

Similarly our homes also have their own unique identity in terms of smell and it is not surprising that even if you are blindfolded you ca tell which friend’s home you are entering.

The feel and the fragrance when we first enter a home or office creates a very strong impact on those who enter hence if the home smells less than fresh, it ca affect the comfort levels of those who come in.

The fragrance should be natural and create feel of serenity. Think of the subtle smell of lavender as you walk past it in a garden when compared to the artificial lavender scented air fresheners. Natural smells affect us in a way that those commercially sold perfumes can never. Use of aroma sticks especially when they have natural ingredients and herbs are a little more comforting and cleanse the air with the added advantage of not causing respiratory problems.

Cleansing your place of dwelling or work place with aroma sticks periodically ensures that stale air is taken away and brings in a sense of freshness. The Tibetan school of feng shui considers this very important process and is essential for “space cleansing’. Having plants, which emanate good fragrance in the garden especially near the back door, is good.

Some of the smell enhancers like aroma sticks, burning of aroma oils quite often referred to as aroma therapy, plants with flowers emanating good fragrance, fruits and fruit bowl on the dining table have in them a unique sense of smell which in feng shui stimulates the sensory system of the occupants.

A space which has been cleansed, free of staleness and smells pleasant ushers in the positive chi and brings about a change in the feel of the environment and strengthens our aspirations and dreams by motivating us to move further in our lives.
